Eddie 16/10/2013 No more Mr. Nice Guy
For the last couple of years our Nige has been consistent. He never fails to get involved with the lowcarb debate. He waxes lyrical about the NHS and it’s staff. See a dietition he tells lots of people, see your Doctor, see your diabetes nurse, in short he is a one man public relations outfit for the NHS. Our Nige is also very consistent regarding prominent lowcarb posters. He goads and ridicules them every opportunity he gets. Accusing lowcarb members of lying, then when the thread heats up, he screams I’m being bullied and bellows for the mods. Rubbishing books by Bernstein, Taubes and Kendrick that have helped lowcarbers, dismissing them as “only interested in making money and causing controversy” but then has the stupidity to admit he has never read them.
So, our Nige is sorted, he doesn’t need books or lowcarbers telling him how to control his diabetes. He has his health professionals to do that. Who needs lowcarb stalwarts to tell Nige how to control his weight, control his HbA1c numbers, to reduce his retinopathy, to teach him how to store and properly use his insulin ? Yes you have guessed it, the lowcarbers sorted our Nige a few years ago. Three years ago Nige was thanking lowcarbers for helping him and improving his knowledge and health. HCP’s had let him down and he let all on the forum know in no uncertain terms, as you can see from his original post below.
This post from diabetes.co.uk was posted as a comment on this thread on Saturday. 'Books One mans life saver is another mans doorstop !' it clearly shows what the NHS had done for Nigel. It clearly illustrates what so many members at diabetes.co.uk have stated for years. The NHS lets diabetics down badly. It clearly shows the dietary recommendations are deeply flawed. It manifestly confirms our Nigel is at best a very confused man, maybe a man with very poor memory, is he a total hypocrite ? is he one wave short of a ship wreck ? is he the biggest liar the forum has ever seen ? Make up your own mind, I have. As you can see, Nigel swiftly edited his post placed on the forum three years ago yesterday afternoon. Could it be Nigel realised how ridiculous his antics have been attacking lowcarbers, could he be trying to cover his butt ? Our Nige has been rumbled and he knows it !

"I have seen dieticians, read books, spoke to my diabetic care team, and none have offered any constructive advice on controlling weight. Reading this forum has been helpful, and reading other peoples experiences in controlling their diabetes and improving Hba1c's, has been inspirational !
I can't recollect at any time been given advice on reducing carbs to control weight. I have always been told to eat plenty of carbs at every meal, together with the usual meat and veg. Once I was told that a bowl of cereal for breakfast was insufficient, and should include 2 slices of toast also. Looking back I can now see how flawed this advice/information has been.
Cutting back on the carbs, reducing portion size and eating sensible foods, combined with plenty of exercise has changed my approach to diabetes. I am now eating approximately half the amount of carbs I ate only 3 months back, and at last my weight is starting to drop. Before I started to cut back I was 14st 12lb, and being only 5ft 9'' was well overweight, and my BMI was 31. "

Today I have got on the scales and I am 14st 3lb, in total a lose of 9lb. Ideally, I would love to get down to the 12st, should this take till this time next year, I don't care much, but I will get there!
I know that 9lb is no big deal, and I still have a long way to go to get to my ideal weight. I just feel a bit miffed that I had to find out myself by reading this forum to gain this information. Somewhere, there has got to be a radical change in advice given to patients with diabetes!

Maybe our Nige should change his forum signature.
Lowcarbers helped me, they can help you, don’t rely on the NHS and DUK dietary advice for diabetics !

Click on screen shot for Nigel's much edited post. Swiftly followed up by the low carb king, Fergus.
Link to forum thread here.
"Damn right Nigel!
We are a fortunate few. There are millions of others being made ill by an institutionalised ignorance about nutrition, and most aren't aware it's happening.
It's our duty to spread the word I reckon."
No way would Fergus have made his comment on what was left of Noblehead's post. Fergus made his comment re the original post before Noblehead removed the praise for lowcarb, and where he had rubbished the standard dietary information pushed by the likes of the NHS and DUK
From another member.
"Well done Nigel!!
That's not 'not much' it's a damned good achievement!! We're lucky to have found this forum, the lower carb method has lost me nearly 2 stone, no longer overweight and on minimal insulin.
Keep it up mate!"

Noblehead is he the biggest liar the forum has ever seen ?
YES
Did you ever? What a hypocrite. I think I prefer Sid. Pity we can't get this onto DCUK.
The politest expression I can think of is "pulling up the ladder"
I am sure others will express it differently.
I would love to hear his explanation.

If Noblehead had a shred of integrity and honesty he would hide his head in shame. Sadly, he has neither and will continue to lie and spread misinformation. To the clued up and informed it will not matter a jot. But, to the poorly informed and newly diagnosed he has done great damage. What sort of person obtains pleasure out of leading people astray and to the grim complications poorly controlled diabetes can bring.
What a grim life he must have lived to seek pleasure in others downfall.

Eddie how clever of you to divine malign intent.
Perhaps he has revised his ideas , perfectly valid, it's the basis of good science. Maybe he feels that what was once considered low or moderate carb is now considered very high by some people . He wanted to make clear his intention.
Your perceptions always seem to be simplistic; black and white . You stick everyone in a corner, them and us (marcarthyism personified)
who the hell keeps track of peoples posts over several years... a stalker?
Do you not feel that your pronouncements ,might actually reveal some contradictions?
Hi Fred
I like the cut of your jib, so rare to find a live one.
“Perhaps he has revised his ideas” Perhaps he could explain to the forum why this has come about. “Your perceptions always seem to be simplistic; black and white .” You have me there Fred. I see diabetes control as good or bad. 93% of type one diabetics never obtain good control of HbA1c. “(marcarthyism personified)” good grief Fred I accuse no one of being a communist, jeez I am so left wing you wouldn’t believe it. Get a grip lad, read my posts.
“who the hell keeps track of peoples posts over several years... a stalker?” I do Fred, for me the fight against big pharma lies, junk food propaganda and their shills is war. I have one keen memory for lies, is that a crime ? And our files on liars and spreaders of misinformation is extensive.
“Do you not feel that your pronouncements ,might actually reveal some contradictions?” Too right Fred as my post proves. Lowcarb antis contradict themselves so often.
Come back any time Fred, I like you.
Eddie
Fred eh? As in Fred Flintstone perhaps? Hmmmm...
Paul
It's called Karma Fred, noblehead took great delight in joining in the attacks on LowCarbers so we make no apologies for highlighting just what a hypocrite he is, the same goes for bonkers, phoenix and the rest of the clique.
